"What's wrong? Xiaoxuan, why do I listen to you? Will Qingque be in danger when he goes north this time?"
In the camp, Cheng Chumo was suddenly excited after hearing Li Zexuan's emotion and asked quickly.
There was obviously a sense of concern in his words.
Before last year, Cheng Chumo and Li Tai deliberately kept a distance, because at that time, Li Tai and Li Chengqian were competing for favor in the palace, involving the battle for the crown prince's position. Cheng Yaojin could not let his son get involved rashly, so whether it was Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Cheng Chumo have always kept a distance from them!
But later Yanhuang Academy was established, and after being classmates with Li Tai for more than a year, the two established a certain friendship. Although they were not as close as brothers, they could still be regarded as good friends. That's why Cheng Chumo became slightly nervous after hearing Li Zexuan's words.
The same reaction as him was Yuchi Baolin, who also sat up from the couch and looked at Li Zexuan with a worried look.
"Of course there is a danger!"
Li Zexuan nodded and said in a deep voice: "Now there is a tense situation between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks. Both sides have deployed heavy troops on the border. The war is about to break out. At such a sensitive time, if Qingque leads the teachers and students of the academy to go north, there is no guarantee that it will not cause any trouble. Attention of Turks lurking in Datang!
Although I heard from General Duan that this time when the academy went north, His Majesty sent a thousand Imperial Guards to escort them along the way. The leaders were the two brothers Dugu Xin and Dugu Feiying. However, it is easy to hide from open guns and difficult to guard against hidden arrows. A thousand Imperial Guards It is impossible to protect Qing Que and others at all times. If the Turks really want to attack Qing Que and others in secret, they are still very likely to succeed! "
When Cheng Chumo heard this, he suddenly became anxious. He hammered his head and said irritably: "What should we do? Xiaoxuan, you always have many ways, think of a way! You can't really let Qingque and the others get into trouble, right? Huaiyu and Tiedan and the others are still inside too!"
At the beginning, Cheng Chumo only thought that this trip to the north was just a training mission assigned to Li Tai and others by the academy. Anyway, they were in the Tang Dynasty, so they would not encounter any danger. He only wanted to send telegrams after arriving in Taiyuan and Yunzhou. Just build the relay station. But what Li Zexuan said just now revealed that things were not as simple as he imagined. This was not an ordinary outing experience. It might even be life-threatening!
At this time, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but regret not going north with Li Tai, Tiedan and others!
Hearing this, Li Zexuan couldn't help but said helplessly: "Find a way? What way can you think of? You and I are in the army now, and Qingque and the others are probably almost at Taiyuan at the moment. What can I do even if I try every possible means? Besides, What is the situation there now, and whether the Turks know their purpose of going north, we all know nothing about these, how can I think of a solution?"
"I... what should I do?"
Cheng Chumo was speechless. After a moment, he opened his mouth and asked.
"wait!"
After a long silence, Li Zexuan said: "For now, we can only wait until the news comes back from Qingque. I just hope that the Turks have no time to take care of things here, or that Qingque can predict the danger in advance and act with caution!"
"You...don't you say it in vain?"
When Cheng Chumo heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes and said in frustration.
"Then tell me, do you have any good ideas?"
Li Zexuan glanced at this guy and felt a little annoyed.
"Um...I...what can I do?"
Cheng Chumo was speechless for a moment. He was also a big talker, and he could sneer at people, but if you asked him to come up with some substantive suggestions and methods, it would be difficult for him!
Li Zexuan also knew the urinary nature of this guy, so he did not continue to press. He shook his head and said: "Calculating the time, Qingque and the others should arrive in Taiyuan City in the next two days. If there is a situation there, he should be the first to do so." It’s time to send me a telegram, so someone has to guard the telegraph machine for the past two days. Once Qingque comes with news, I can receive it as soon as possible, so that I can make suggestions for him!”
"Hey~? Xiaoxuan, I can do this, let me do it?"
When Cheng Chumo heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly volunteered.
Watching the telegraph machine in the camp means that he doesn't have to stay in the school field to train hard for these two days. For Cheng Chumo, who else would this good thing be? He will fight with whoever robs him!
So, after saying this, the guy deliberately looked at Yuchi Baolin next to him and winked at the latter crazily.
Although Yuchi Baolin was straightforward, he was not stupid. He could still tell what Cheng Chumo wanted to say, so he did not speak and wanted to give this opportunity to Cheng Chumo.
"You? I asked you to stay in the camp and guard the telegraph machine. I'm afraid you'll fall asleep on your own within an hour!"
Li Zexuan glanced at Cheng Chumo and said calmly: "It's better to leave this matter to Baolin. Baolin is more careful and responsible than you on weekdays. You guys should focus on training and don't use your brain!"
He would never forget that he sent Cheng Chumo to help in the kitchen a few days ago, but this guy hid in the firewood pile and fell asleep. Although Cheng Chumo accidentally broke through Zhang Kangnian's conspiracy that time, he was just right. It shows how unreliable this guy is!
In addition, Yuchi Baolin's martial arts level is slightly higher than that of Cheng Chumo, so Li Zexuan doesn't want Cheng Chumo to miss the next two days of training, otherwise this guy will fall further and further behind others!
"Ah? Xiaoxuan, you can't do this! I promise, I will guard the telegraph machine carefully and never be lazy..."
Hearing this, Cheng Chumo was dumbfounded.
Li Zexuan was not moved at all. He looked at Yuchi Baolin and asked: "Baolin, I'll leave this matter to you. You should be fine, right? I don't need you to translate the message. I only need you to translate the message when the telegraph machine rings. Just ask someone to call me over!"
Yuchi Baolin looked embarrassed at this moment. He looked at Cheng Chumo, who shook his head violently at him, and then looked at Li Zexuan. After hesitating for a while, he finally nodded and said: "Don't worry, Chief, I have no problem, I will definitely help you." Watch the telegraph machine!"
He didn't want to disappoint Li Zexuan, and he knew that the final decision on this matter rested with Li Zexuan, and the decisions made by Li Zexuan were generally not easily changed. Regardless of whether he agreed or not, Li Zexuan would probably not change it. Leave this matter to Cheng Chumo!
"Okay! Then I'll feel relieved!"
Li Zexuan came over and patted Yuchi Baolin on the shoulder, smiling happily.
At this time, Cheng Chumo knew that it was impossible for him, so he lay down on the couch again, smashing the broken jar and said in a strange manner: "Hey, Xiaoxuan, if you ask me to tell you, this method of yours won't work! You just said that, let's They are all in the army, but Qingque and the others are far away in Taiyuan. Even if he sends you a telegram when something happens, you won't have time to rush over and help him solve it!
Let me tell you, you should have let me and Qing Que go to Taiyuan together from the beginning instead of coming to the military camp. With me, a great expert, protecting them, no matter what kind of monsters and monsters come here, I, Old Cheng, will kill them all with one blow. Cut it off! "
It's easy for this guy to brag to the limit. Li Zexuan couldn't help but laugh: "Just you? A master?... A master... A master... Yes, why did I forget about him?"
He wanted to mock Cheng Chumo for a few words, but then he suddenly remembered someone. He knocked on his head, turned back to his couch, fetched the telegraph machine, placed it on the table, and started to send a telegram.
"Didi~didi~didi..."
Soon, a series of messages were sent. Cheng Chumo looked confused at this time. He wondered: "Xiaoxuan, who do you think of? Also, who are you sending the message to now?"
Li Zexuan ignored him, but sat at the table, quietly waiting for a response from the other side of the telegraph machine.
"Didi~didi~didi..."
After about half a cup of tea, the telegraph machine on the table finally rang. Li Zexuan was shocked and listened carefully for a moment. After the telegraph machine stopped ringing, he started to send a telegram again.
"Didi~didi~didi..."
The whole process lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Cheng Chumo could only watch in confusion. He wanted to ask, but Li Zexuan didn't say anything!
At this time, seeing Li Zexuan finishing sending the telegram and preparing to put away the telegraph machine, Cheng Chumo finally couldn't hold it in anymore. He quickly asked: "Xiao Xuan, can you tell me who you just sent a telegram to? "
Li Zexuan put away the telegraph unhurriedly, smiled, and then said mysteriously: "A great master. You don't know him anyway, so go to bed quickly! Tomorrow's training volume will be increased by 30%~!"
"Great master? I don't know him yet? Who is he?"
When Cheng Chumo heard this, he became even more curious. How could he sleep at this time? So he chased Li Zexuan to find out more about it.
But what made him itch with hatred was that Li Zexuan refused to tell him. If he could beat Li Zexuan, he would probably have been beaten eight hundred times by now, right

The moon and stars are sparse, Taiyuan, the ancestral home of the Wang family.
At this time, most of the people in this deep mansion had already rested. An old man in gray robe with tall cheekbones and gray temples came to Siguo Courtyard in the west alone.
(From a physiognomy perspective, cheekbones correspond to power. Generally speaking, people with very high cheekbones have a great desire for power)
"Second Elder, are you here? Please come in!"
When he arrived at the gate of Siguo Courtyard, a man came out and bowed to the old man.
Second elder? This old man is Wang Kui, the second elder of the Wang family in Taiyuan, and the younger brother of Wang Bing (in the "Northern History", Wang Bing was changed to Wang Kang to avoid mentioning Li Yuan's father, Li Bing), and the man who went out to greet him was Xiao Qing.
The old man just paused for a moment, without even looking at Xiao Qing, and then walked towards the Siguo Courtyard. As for the guard at the entrance of the courtyard, he didn't know where he was tonight, causing the Siguo Courtyard to be closed. There was no one guarding the door!
"Renyi has met the second elder!"
Wang Kui came to the courtyard, and a young man in neat clothes walked out of the house quickly. Then, five steps in front of Wang Kui, he respectfully behaved like a junior.
Wang Kui cast his gaze on Wang Renyi, remained silent for a long time, and said calmly: "I heard that you have an urgent matter with me, and it is related to the life and death of my Wang family in Taiyuan. Now that I am here, you can tell me!"
Wang Renyi straightened up and said calmly: "This courtyard is not the place for talking. Please ask the second elder to move to a side hall to talk!"
After saying that, Wang Renyi made an invitation gesture.
Wang Kui hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay! I'll just listen to what you have to say! If I find out that you are exaggerating and making alarmist remarks, I will not let you off lightly!"
After saying that, Wang Kui flicked his sleeves and walked towards the back room.
